Chapter 579


    Yasmin was not only Ryan’s secretary, but also his professional bodyguard. When she saw someone


    rush toward him, she frowned and immediately stepped in front of Ryan.


    However, Linny kneeled in front of them.


    Ryan and Yasmin were surprised.


    “Mr. Hoffman! Please help Ms. Carrie!” Linny cried as she kneeled on the cold, hard ground.


    “Help her up, Yasmin.”


    Ryan frowned slightly. “You can say what you want to say standing up.”


    Yasmin was about to lean down to help Linny up, but Linny shook her head vigorously, refusing to get


    up. “If you don’t promise help Ms. Carrie, I won’t get up! I know that I’m just a mere you’ll and an ant in


    your eyes, but even if I have to risk my insignificant hope I can help Ms. Carrie just once!”


    “What on earth happened?” Ryan’s heart clenched as he asked seriously.


    Linny wiped her tears away with force and shuffled forward on her knees before raising a hand to


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    carefully roll up Carrie’s sleeve.


    Instantly, Ryan and Yasmin’s eyes widened!


    They saw how Carrie’s pale, slender arm was covered in bruises and scars. It was a heart-wrenching


    sight.


    Ryan was instantly filled with rage. His arm muscles were so tense that they looked like they were


    about to burst out of his shirt.


    “Who did this?”


    He squeezed out just three words in his fury.


    Yasmin’s heart trembled.


    No one understood Ryan better than Yasmin did. Often, when he said something calmly and lightly,


    that was when he was truly furious.


    “It was Bethany Salvador!”


    Linny could not care less and called Bethany by her full name. She teared up as she added, “Bethany


    Salvador has been oppressing and bullying Ms. Carrie at home, just because she has the chairman


    and his wife’s favor! Bethany verbally and physically abused Ms. Carrie…


    She’s the devil! She doesn’t dare touch Ms. Carrie when Young Master Justin is at home because he’s


    more powerful than she is. But Youn


    Master Justin is the president of Salvador Corporation and stays only two nights every month at


    Tideview Manor. He can protect Ms. Carrie during his stays, but he can’t protect her the whole time!”


    Ryan frowned deeper the more he heard.


    Even Yasmin’s hand had clenched into a fist.


    “Mr. Hoffman, you’re Young Master Justin’s best friend. I can tell that you’re sincerely good to Ms.


    Carrie, so please help her! Please protect her!” Linny sobbed uncontrobly.


    “Alright, I promise I’ll take care of her.”


    Ryan took a deep breath and looked at the pitiful girl in his arms, heart pounding hard. The burden on


    his shoulders was heavy.


    “As long as I live, I’ll protect her.”


    Thus, Carrie was taken away by Ryan in such a grand manner.


    He had even humiliated Bethany in front of so many people.


    Although this happened at home, Bethany felt that Ryan had trampled her queenly dignity at home into


    the dust.


    Bethany thought, ‘Why… Why did even that idiot have a knight in shining armor? Only I didn’t! From


    looks to pedigree and talent, in what way am I inferior to Carrie Salvador?! Ryan would rather go for a


    fool like Carrie than me. Was he concussed?’


    She was about to burst with anger, so she could only take it out on


    Carrie’s helper, Linny. Not only did she punish Linny to clean alle toilets in Tideview Manor tonight, but


    she also took away Linny’s of-year bonus.


    “That’s enough! Look at how evil and fierce you look. You look eve more like a bitch than that shrew,


    Be Thompson! No wonder Ryan was never interested in you. Even I feel irritated to look at you right


    now!”
